Book Description
Two collections of masterworks from all stylistic periods chosen based on their appeal to the showmanship in the students and their accessibility to pianists at the early intermediate through late intermediate levels. Arranged in approximate order of difficulty, the pieces are impressive, fun to play and exploit a broad range of the piano's capabilities. Virtuoso pianist Valery Lloyd-Watt studied at the Conservatory of Music in Toronto and the Royal College of Music in London. She earned a Master of Music degree from the University of Wisconsin, where she studied with Paul Badura-Skoda.

Etudes for Piano Teachers

Author: Stewart Gordon
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190282479
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 155

Book Description
Just as musical etudes focus on the development of skills and address the technical problems encountered in keyboard literature, the "etudes" in Stewart Gordon's new book also focus on ideas which prepare piano teachers for meeting the problems encountered in piano performing and teaching. This major new collection on the piano teacher's art opens with an assessment of the role of the piano teacher, and goes on to explore various types of students and the challenge each presents: the moderately talented, but ambitious, student; the late beginner; the unusually gifted. Drawing on thirty years of teaching and performing, Gordon then bring fresh ideas to bear on the often-discussed areas of inner-hearing, pulse regulation, improvisation, sight-reading, and collaborative music making. There are sections on performance procedures, memorizing, pedalling, and historical performance practices; a carefully-balanced consideration of the role of the piano student and teacher; and realistic looks at the problems facing the profession today, the dynamics of a performing career, and the stages through which musicians' careers often pass. Designed to open up new avenues of inquiry, to provoke discussion and creative thinking, and to challenge and motivate students, these essays will be vital reading for all serious piano students and teachers.
